Old Road, Cawood, YO8

A charming period home in the popular village of Cawood. The main house was constructed in 1841 and takes influence from the Georgian Era of house design where symmetry was key. However this intriguing historic home dates back much further with a Grade II listed outbuilding and sitting room understood to be built in the 1600s. The property was also recently extended in 2007 and now presents as a practical and beautiful family home.

The property opens centrally into a welcoming hallway with reception rooms to both sides. The lounge has dual aspect light with traditional sash windows (continued throughout), panelled walls and an attractive ornate fireplace with open fire. The second reception room is an ideal dining room or second sitting room, also to the front elevation. Also accessed off the hallway is the kitchen offering a Shaker style with a country feel with exposed brick walls, stone tiled flooring and exposed beams. The kitchen itself has a series of wall and base units with integrated appliances, granite worktops, a built in breakfast table and a walk in pantry with further units and wine cooler. From the kitchen is an inner hallway with WC and access into a flexible room of many possible uses, currently utilised as a guest bedroom. This is part of the original property dating to the 17th century and is Grade II listed.

Stairs from the entrance hall lead to a first floor landing off which are three bedrooms including the Master Bedroom with en-suite shower room. The remaining two bedrooms are served by the house bathroom.

Externally is the garden to the side of the house accessed from the kitchen. The garden is fully fenced with garden gate, footpath, patio and lawn and enjoys the best of the sun in the morning. There is also a handy brick outbuilding ideal for garden storage.

In summary, a charming and individual period home in the village of Cawood.
